Favorite New Knitting Bag

Monday, May 26th, 2008

A new line of totes came into angela adams this week and, guess what, they make awesome knitting bags!  Available in three colors and two sizes, with great pockets.  I love how B-I-G this one is.

Last Wednesday I went to visit my Aunt Lynn in Harvard, MA.

It is one of the cutest towns ever.  After spending the afternoon hanging out at her house and shopping at The Wool Pack, I attended her guild meeting.  I was able to present my book to knitters who had helped me with some of the pieces from Closely Knit.

I also got to meet Ellen, who started Ellie’s Reclaimed Cashmere.  She finds “abandoned” cashmere sweaters and recycles the yarn.  If you are in Portland, Anna carries it at Knitwit.  Ellen is sending me some to play with, I will write about it once it arrives!
